Over the years, as the community has increased in size, there has been an increased need to build Armenian Churches and Cultural Clubs to cater to the community. This might explain why there is a high number of Middle Eastern restaurants.

In addition to these restaurants, Willoughby has a vibrant food scene – if the different establishments are anything to go by. Martha’s Restaurant, for instance, is renowned for its sophisticated French dining, while The Italian Bar Pizza is a hidden gem.

Explore Lebanon’s treats at Arax Lebanese Cuisine and Wood Fire Pizza. Other options include Origin Dining for contemporary cuisine, Ribs & Burgers Chatswood for the juiciest burgers and the Incinerator Cafe. For wholesome food, look no further than Sprout Wholefood Cafe and Grocer.
